Directions

  1. 1

    Cream fat, 100 g sugar, vanillin sugar and salt. Stir in eggs. Add milk. Mix flour, cornstarch and baking powder and stir in. Put the dough into a greased springform pan (24 cm Ø) and smooth it down.

  2. 2

    Bake in the preheated oven (electric: 175°C/ gas: level 2) for 25-30 minutes, let cool and cut through horizontally once. Heat the jelly and spread on the bottom. Place the springform ring around the bottom.

  3. 3

    Crumble the remaining soil. Drain the apricots and collect the juice. Mix dough crumbs, 50 g brittle, amaretto and 4 tablespoons apricot juice. Make 7 apricot moons, cut out a star from one and put aside.

  4. 4

    Spread whole apricots and apricot segments on the coated base. Add the crumb mixture and press on. Soak the gelatine. Stir the quark, yoghurt, remaining sugar and lemon zest until smooth.

  5. 5

    Squeeze out the gelatine, dissolve, stir into the curd mixture and refrigerate. Whip 150 g cream until stiff and, as soon as the quark mixture begins to gel, fold in and spread on the crumb mixture. Put the cake in a cool place for about 3 hours.

  6. 6

    Whip the rest of the cream until stiff and fill into a piping bag with star-shaped spout. Remove the cake from the springform pan and decorate with cream tuffs. Sprinkle with remaining brittle and apricots and cover.
